25X1 I Met with Mr. Crawford Cook, Adminis-
trative Assistant to Senator Ernest Hollings (D., S.C.), and confirmed with
him the details for the Senator's luncheon meeting with the Director at
Headquarters tomorrow, 19 April. Mr. Cook advised that Senator Spong
had indicated an interest in accompanying Senator Hollings and that the,
Senator has a call in to Mr. Helms. Mr. Cook noted that he had advised
Senator Hollings, in keeping with his conversations with me, that he was
sure the Director would be pleased to have Senators Hollings and Spong come
out together. Any changes required in bringing the Senator to the Headquarters
tomorrow that may result from Senator Spong's attendance at the luncheon
will be worked out tomorrow morning.
25X1
relating to the United States Intelligence Board, the Operations Coordinating
Board, and the Katzenbach Committee report. This material was requested
for use in assisting Senator Symington in responding to constituent inquiries.
Met with Edward Braswell, Counsel,
Senate Armed Services Committee, and provided him with unclassified material
25X1 I Office of Security,
advised that two pieces of legislation are pending with Governor Rockefeller
which would outlaw the use of the polygra h in New York state. Efforts will
be made by the Office of Security throughio ascertain the status of the
legislation and procure copies of the bill.
25X1
Talked to Mr. Jones, in the office of Congressman
Paul Findley (R., Ill.), and subsequently to the Congressman concerning a
letter they had received from State about an arms sale to Included
in the letter was a statement that the Agency had been consulted. I pointed
out to Jones and the Congressman the problems this creates for the Agency's
no comment policy and asked if we could furnish a substitute letter leaving
out specific reference to the Agency. Both Jones and the Congressman readily
saw the problem and agreed to accept the substitute letter. The Congressman
also permitted me to retrieve the original letter. Findley is a gentleman in
every sense of the word and appears to have no anti-Agency bias of any kind.
I called Miss Proctor at the Department of State, provided her with
appropriate language for a new letter, which she said she would do immedi-
ately and send it to the Congressman's office.
